HTML code inside <Script> tag

I am having a hard executing a chunk of HTML code inside my JavaScript logic, i was wondering if someone could point out what i am doing wrong? What i am trying to achieve is run either video based on probability. Here is my code:

  • 7 html is not javascript, can´t mix both that way as in php. You need to properly create the elements and add them to the dom. Or have them both in dom hidden and just show the one you want –  juvian Dec 23, 2015 at 20:03

As the comments state.. That is not how you should go about.. You can try this though, perhaps it will get you an idea on how to work with javascript in combination with html:

  • My vote would actually go to this one. It's more concise and DRYer than my answer –  Richard Hamilton Dec 23, 2015 at 20:20
  • 1 I don't think we should encourage folks new to this kind of thing to inline HTML in their Javascript code. It leads to the dark side :-) –  mcgraphix Dec 23, 2015 at 20:28
  • 1 Weren't we all doing that in the beginning :)? –  Poul Kruijt Dec 23, 2015 at 20:29

html tags such as <video> should be put outside of a JavaScript function and inside the html's <body> tag.

First, you want to query your video element with getElementById . In both scenarios, we are creating a source element, so we can declare that outside of the conditional block.

We can set attributes such as src and type with the setAttribute function. We can then add the source element as a child to the video element with the appendChild function.

Richard Hamilton's user avatar

Since you didn't tag this with jQuery, I'll assume you aren't looking to use it. You can still use "templates" though, even without it:

Put each template in a script tag with type="text/template":

Then in your javascript load the correct one based on your logic:

Note, there were some typos in your HTML and you condition would always return true:

All positive numbers are greater than 0 or less than 50.

Here is a working fiddle: https://jsfiddle.net/mcgraphix/5cr4j1r7/

For more complex templates where you can pass data in to populate your template, you may want to look at Mustache or Handlebars.

mcgraphix's user avatar

  • Hey man thanks for taking the time to help me out. With the fiddle link that you provided, one of the iframes does not display the video, do you have any idea what would cause that? I couldn't pinpoint the root. Thanks again. –  Belbron Emanoel Dec 23, 2015 at 20:44
  • I just took your HTML directly (except I fixed the mispelled iframe closing tag). However, on closer inspection it looks like part of your HTML might be missing. You have an opening <iframe> tag but it doesn't have a closing bracket. Then you have <source> tag starting. Make sure your HTML works when you put it right in the HTML. Then just move the working HTML inside the script tag as I had it. –  mcgraphix Dec 23, 2015 at 20:54

You can't do that.

But you can use templates.

Both w/wo jQuery

function jq(){ return $('#useJquery').prop('checked') } function replace(){ return $('#replace').prop('checked') } $(function(){ $('#button').click(function(){run();}) }) function run(){ if (jq()) { if (replace()) {$("#container").html('');} $("#container").append($((Math.round(Math.random()) ? $("#template1") : $("#template2")).html())); } else { if (replace()){document.getElementById("container").innerHTML = ''} document.getElementById("container").innerHTML += document.getElementById( (Math.round(Math.random()) ? "template1" : "template2")).innerHTML; } } <script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script> <input type="checkbox" id="useJquery"> Use jQuery ? <input type="checkbox" id="replace"> Replace ? <input type="button" id="button" value="Randomize!"/> <script type="text/template" id="template1"><div>I chose : VIDEO 1</div></script> <script type="text/template" id="template2"><div>I chose : VIDEO 2</div></script> <div id="container"></div>

The HTML <script> Tag

The HTML <script> tag is used to define a client-side script (JavaScript).

The <script> element either contains script statements, or it points to an external script file through the src attribute.

Common uses for JavaScript are image manipulation, form validation, and dynamic changes of content.

To select an HTML element, JavaScript most often uses the document.getElementById() method.

This JavaScript example writes "Hello JavaScript!" into an HTML element with id="demo":

How to Use the HTML Script Tag

Published: May 31, 2023

You may want to add JavaScript files, third-party libraries, or frameworks to your web pages. In this case, knowing how to make these additions quickly will be essential. The HTML script tag can help.

https://docs.google.com/document/d/18w00GE-VFlScXEPN44osYECZtlKHruTABvspoPUt4KU/edit#

This powerful tag feature enables developers to effortlessly include common libraries, plugins, and scripts into their HTML documents to increase performance. Not only does this enhance development speed, but it also promotes better debugging and smoother collaboration with other coders.

Read on to learn more about what the <script> tag is and what it does.

Table of Contents

  • What is the script tag in HTML?

Script Tag Attributes

Html script tag examples.

You can insert a JavaScript file or any other scripting language into an HTML document with the help of <script> tags. This code may be placed directly within the tag, or you may use an external file and reference it through the src attribute to reduce repeated coding and optimize for better performance.

When the HTML document is loaded, the browser parses and executes the script, adding dynamic behavior and interactivity to the page. For example, you can use JavaScript to respond to user actions, update content, and create animations.

By including the <script> tag in the header or body of an HTML document, you can control various features such as asynchronous and deferral, which can direct scripts to run orders.

Additionally, the src attribute allows you to determine external resources for your script code while remaining highly customizable.

Now let’s check out some popular script tag attributes.

The script tag has many attributes you can use to control how the code is loaded and executed. These attributes include:

  • Where to put the script tag in the HTML.
  • What it does (asynchronously, deferring loading, etc.).
  • What priority it should have when fetched by the browser.
  • Which cryptographic hash should be used for verification.
  • And, whether blocking or nonce is enabled.

All these attributes serve different purposes and help keep your website performant and secure. Below are some of the most used script tag attributes.

This attribute is a boolean that returns true if it’s present. The async attribute informs the browser to load this script asynchronously so that once downloaded, the page will be rendered without interference. As a result, you can delight in speedy performance.

Crossorigin

The crossorigin attribute is a valuable asset when loading scripts from different domains. By default, the browser will not transfer certain information in the error messages sent to window.onerror for scripts sourced from external domains.

In using this attribute, however, you can enable logging of any errors generated by these types of requests, allowing for better performance and an improved user experience across all pages on your website.

With this attribute in place, the browser will wait until the entire page has been parsed before executing any script. This is especially useful if you have several scripts on a single page, as it guarantees that they are carried out as per their order of appearance in HTML code.

Refrain from using this attribute if you won’t be including the src attribute, as this will cause the inline scripts to be ineffective.

Fetch Priority

This feature allows you to prioritize the script source when retrieved by the web browser for higher performance. The priority of requests can be adjusted based on a variety of influences, such as the size and number of resources requested at one time in addition to network conditions:

  • High. This signal signifies a high-priority call for external scripts and should take precedence over other fetch requests.
  • Low. Signals are fetched with less priority than other external scripts.
  • Auto. By default, signals determine the fetch priority of external scripts compared to other ones automatically.

With this capability, you can give the browser a cryptographic hash of the script resource to verify that no one changed it while downloading. This ensures your script is properly protected and safe to use.

Recently incorporated into HTML5, the nomodule attribute of the <script> tag provides a way for developers to indicate that modern browsers should not execute their script. This is especially useful if your code does not follow ECMAScript module standards and only needs to run on older web browsers.

Nonce means the number used once. This feature allows you to create an unpredictable, one-time-use string (known as a “nonce”) that confirms the script has not been altered during download.

This unique identifier is then included in your response's Content Security Policy header and verified by any web browser used. With this security measure in place, you can be confident no malicious changes have occurred throughout the transmission process.

Referrerpolicy

With this feature, you can set the Referrer-Policy header of the response that controls how any reference information is sent when requesting a script.

  • no-referrer: No Referer header will be transmitted.
  • no-referrer-when-downgrade: If an origin does not have Transport Layer Security (TLS, also known as HTTPS), the Referer header will not be sent.
  • origin: The referrer sent to the server will be restricted solely to its source: including protocol, hostname, and port.
  • origin-when-cross-origin: As a precaution, the referrer sent to external sources will only include the scheme, host name, and port number. However, when navigating internally on the same origin page, it will also list its path.
  • same-origin: Requests made within the same domain will include a referrer. However, requests across different domains won't have any associated referrer data.
  • strict-origin: When moving from a secure protocol (HTTPS) to another secure destination, ensure that the document's origin is sent as part of the referrer; however, do not send it if transitioning to an insecure environment (HTTPS→HTTP).
  • strict-origin-when-cross-origin: Whenever making a same-origin request, always provide the full URL. Only send the origin if both destinations have the same security level (e.g., HTTPS→HTTPS). Lastly, omit any header when accessing a less secure website (for example, HTTPS→HTTP).
  • unsafe-URL: The referrer will include the origin and path, though it omits fragment, password, and username. This value is unsafe, exposing origins and paths from secure TLS sources to unsecured places.

This attribute defines the exact location of an external script resource that needs to be loaded. Rather than including a script directly into your document, this is a great alternative.

This attribute specifically defines the type of script, typically as text/javascript. The type attribute is necessary to provide the browser with a clear understanding of handling your scripts.

Omitting this attribute or setting it as an empty string or JavaScript MIME type will automatically tell the browser that your script contains classic JavaScript code — making it extra interpretable and easier for processing.

This attribute is used to specify how the script should be loaded and executed. It blocks certain operations when the script is fetched.

Now that we’ve learned about script tag attributes, let’s check out a few examples.

1. Importing Script Using ‘Src’

Of course, you can include your JavaScript code in the same document as your HTML. However, you can also separate your code in a separate file and import the code using the script tag and the src attribute. Take a look at the example below to see how it’s done.

HTML script Tag

The HTML script tag <script> is used to embed data or executable client side scripting language in an HTML page. Mostly, JavaScript or JavaScript based API code inside a <script></script> tag.

The following is an example of an HTML page that contains the JavaScript code in a <script> tag.

In the above example, a <script></script> tag contains the JavaScript alert('Hello, how are you?') that display a message box.

HTML v4 requires the type attribute to identify the language of script code embedded within script tag. This is specified as MIME type e.g. 'text/javascript', 'text/ecmascript', 'text/vbscript', etc.

HTML v5 page does not require the type attribute because the default script language is 'text/javascript' in a <script> tag.

An HTML page can contain multiple <script> tags in the <head> or <body> tag. The browser executes all the script tags, starting from the first script tag from the beginning.

Scripts without async , defer or type="module" attributes, as well as inline scripts, are fetched and executed immediately, before the browser continues to parse the page. Consider the following page with multiple script tags.

Above, the first <script> tag containing alert('Executing JavaScript 1') will be executed first, then alert('Executing JavaScript 2') will be executed, and then alert('Executing JavaScript 3') will be executed.

The browser loads all the scripts included in the <head> tag before loading and rendering the <body> tag elements. So, always include JavaScript files/code in the <head> that are going to be used while rendering the UI. All other scripts should be placed before the ending </body> tag. This way, you can increase the page loading speed.

Reference the External Script File

A <script> tag can also be used to include an external script file to an HTML web page by using the src attribute.

If you don't want to write inline JavaScript code in the <script></script> tag, then you can also write JavaScript code in a separate file with .js extension and include it in a web page using <script> tag and reference the file via src attribute.

Above, the <script src="/MyJavaScriptFile.js"> points to the external JavaScript file using the src="/MyJavaScriptFile.js" attribute where the value of the src attribute is the path or url from which a file needs to be loaded in the browser. Note that you can load the files from your domain as well as other domains.

Global Attributes

The <script> can contain the following global attributes:

HTML: <script> tag

This HTML tutorial explains how to use the HTML element called the <script> tag with syntax and examples.

Description

The HTML <script> tag is used to embed or reference a client-side script such as JavaScript. This tag is also commonly referred to as the <script> element.

There are two ways that you can use the <script> tag. You can either embed the code within the <script> tags or you can reference a file that includes the code.

Embedded Code

In HTML, the syntax for the <script> tag that has embedded code within the <script> tag is:

Reference a File

In HTML, the syntax for the <script> tag that references a javascript file is:

In addition to the Global Attributes , the following is a list of attributes that are specific to the <script> tag:

  • The HTML <script> element is found either within the <head> tag or the <body> tag .
  • See also <noscript> tag .

Browser Compatibility

The <script> tag has basic support with the following browsers:

  • Firefox (Gecko)
  • Firefox Mobile (Gecko)
  • Internet Explorer (IE)
  • Edge Mobile
  • Opera Mobile
  • Safari (WebKit)
  • Safari Mobile

We will discuss the <script> tag below, exploring examples of how to use the <script> tag in HTML5, HTML 4.01 Transitional, XHTML 1.0 Transitional, XHTML 1.0 Strict, and XHTML 1.1.

HTML5 Document

If you created a new web page in HTML5, your <script> tag might look like this:

In this HTML5 Document example, we have used the <script> tag within the <head> tag to reference a javascript file called functions.js. We have also used the <script> tag within the <body> tag to print the text "HTML5 Script Tag Example".

Notice that in the HTML5 Document example that type="text/javascript" is not required in the <script> tag.

HTML 4.01 Transitional Document

If you created a new web page in HTML 4.01 Transitional, your <script> tag might look like this:
